These are just the ones we get to know about.... I reckon you'd struggle to go 10-12 miles in Scotland with out passing a new nest. England have less amount of perfect nest sites but still 1000's down there

thats some list ,be a much shorter one telling us where they arent ,its blanket coverage .many have often said looking around at the ever increasing age of fanciers ,the sport wont last long . i wonder how long until just a few folk are left with a few "old favourites" in an avairy in the garden sit out thinking about when racing pigeons was the highlight of thier days ?? :emoticon-0127-lipssealed:
